Cannot start Tomcat as a service

JDK 1.4 WIN2K ServerTomcat 4.1.27 Hi everyone, I could not start Tomcat as a service (i.e. through Start|Settings|Control Panel|Administrative Tools|Services). And whenever I try to start it, I'll recieve the following error message: Could not start Apache Tomcat 4.1 service on Local Computer. The service did not return an error. This could be an internal Windows error or an internal service error. However I can start Tomcat through the command prompt by typing "startup.bat". But I recieved the following messages/errors. Does anyone knows what's wrong? ----------

I get the same messages when running startup.bat It seems to say that tomcat started successfully. You can test if this is so by going to start/programs/apache Tomcat 4.1/Tomcat Administration If that app starts then Tomcat is running. You can look up your password for this administration application in Tomcat/conf/tomcat-users.xml As for why the service doesn't start from the other services dialog, I don't know. The following thread on Devshed seems to offer insight into running tomcat as a service: http://forums.devshed.com/t60625/s940c795a6145da1b1922460646955518.html
